hulló

Hulló is a genus of herbaceous plants belonging to the family Asteraceae. The genus name is derived from the Latin word "hullus," meaning "small" or "insignificant," possibly referring to the size of its flowers or overall plant. Species within the genus Hulló are typically found in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with a notable concentration in Europe and Asia.

Plants in the Hulló genus are characterized by their generally small, daisy-like flowers. These flowers are usually white or pale yellow, with numerous ray florets surrounding a central disc of tubular florets. The leaves are often simple and arranged alternately along the stem, though variations exist among different species. Hulló species are commonly found in meadows, grasslands, and open woodlands, preferring well-drained soils.

Reproduction in Hulló species occurs through seeds, which are typically dispersed by wind or animals. The flowering period varies depending on the specific species and geographic location but generally occurs during the summer months. While not widely cultivated for ornamental purposes, some Hulló species have been historically used in traditional medicine for their purported properties, although scientific evidence for these uses is often limited. Further research is ongoing to understand the full ecological role and potential applications of plants within this genus.
